The active ingredient in Esomeprazole Magnesium Delayed-Release Capsules, USP for oral administration is 1H-Benzimidazole-5-methoxy-2-[(S)-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl], magnesium salt (2:1), dihydrate, a PPI. Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, which is a mixture of the S-and R-isomers. (Initial U.S. approval of esomeprazole magnesium: 2001). Its molecular formula is (C 17 H 18 N 3 O 3 S) 2 Mg x 2 H 2 O with molecular weight of 749.15 g/mol as a dihydrate and 713.15 g/mol on an anhydrous basis. The structural formula is: The magnesium salt is a white to slightly colored powder. It is slightly soluble in methanol, practically insoluble water. The stability of esomeprazole magnesium is a function of pH; it rapidly degrades in acidic media, but it has acceptable stability under alkaline conditions. At pH 6.8 (buffer), the half-life of the magnesium salt is about 19 hours at 25°C and about 8 hours at 37°C. Each Esomeprazole Magnesium Delayed-Release Capsule, USP contains either 20 mg or 40 mg of esomeprazole (present as 21.75 mg or 43.5 mg esomeprazole magnesium dihydrate) in the form of enteric-coated pellets containing the following inactive ingredients: hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, methacrylic acid - ethyl acrylate copolymer, polyethylene glycol, sugar spheres (comprised of sucrose and corn starch), talc, titanium dioxide, and triethyl citrate. The capsule shells contain the ingredients FD&C blue# 1, gelatin, iron oxide yellow, shellac, sodium lauryl sulfate, and titanium dioxide. Additionally, black ink contains black iron oxide and potassium hydroxide. Meets USP dissolution test 2. structure
The active ingredient in the proton pump inhibitor esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release capsules for oral administration is bis(5-methoxy-2-[(S)-[(4-methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-2-pyridinyl)methyl]sulfinyl]-1 H -benzimidazole-1-yl) magnesium trihydrate. Esomeprazole is the S-isomer of omeprazole, which is a mixture of the S- and R- isomers. (Initial U.S. approval of esomeprazole magnesium: 2001). Its molecular formula is (C 17 H 18 N 3 O 3 S) 2 Mg x 3 H 2 O with molecular weight of 767.17 as a trihydrate and 713.1 on an anhydrous basis. The structural formula is: Figure 1 The magnesium salt is a white or slightly colored powder. It contains 3 moles of water of solvation and is slightly soluble in methanol, insoluble in water and in n-Heptane. The stability of esomeprazole magnesium is a function of pH; it rapidly degrades in acidic media, but it has acceptable stability under alkaline conditions. At pH 6.8 (buffer), the half-life of the magnesium salt is about 19 hours at 25°C and about 8 hours at 37°C. Esomeprazole magnesium delayed-release capsules are supplied in delayed-release capsules. Each delayed-release capsule contains 20 mg, or 40 mg of esomeprazole (present as 22.25 mg, or 44.50 mg esomeprazole magnesium trihydrate) in the form of enteric-coated granules with the following inactive ingredients: hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose 2910, magnesium stearate, methacrylic acid and ethyl acrylate copolymer dispersion, mono-and di-glycerides, polysorbate 80, sugar spheres, talc and triethyl citrate. The capsule shells have the following inactive ingredients: gelatin, sodium lauryl sulfate and titanium dioxide. The imprinting ink also contains ferric oxide black, shellac, strong ammonium solution, potassium hydroxide and propylene glycol. Image
